Default Re: 52 Garnet Red Paint

[ QUOTE ]
I need help concerning the 52 Garnet Red Chevy color for a 1969 Nova. Does anyone have the right GM formula versus the fire engine red color that seems to be out there? How do I get as close to original as possible?

On my red 68 I just had some PPG single stage mixed, real real close, the trunk is perfect original and I flashed a card aginst it first, Looks great!, If you go BC it will never be the same as oem, if you are looking for a oem look your best bet is single stage. If you have any good paint on your car trunk lid inside door, any major paint supplier can scan it. But PPG does have mix color for your code, as most major brands of paint. If your looking for bc coat you will need to scan it the mix codes are off they were never bc coat.
